Enemies-to-lovers is a trope where a character, typically the protagonist, eventually develops a romantic relationship with their antagonist over the course of a plot (e.g. Jon and Ygritte in Game of Thrones, Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy in Pride and Prejudice). Friends-to-lovers features characters that have a pre-existing platonic relationship that eventually becomes romantic (e.g. Harry and Ginny in Harry Potter).

Selling one's right to sue allows the purchasing law firm or corporation to be entitled to all damages awarded in a lawsuit, while the individual receives a lump sum payment from the firm up front. Companies would be purchasing the right to sue in a particular case, not all potential suits that an individual might file in the future. The right to sell your right to sue is inviolable and cannot be removed through clauses in employee contracts.

Demilitarization involves reductions in the size of armed forces, military funding, and military equipment.

The Closed-Canon Model sees religious doctrine as fixed, based on a closed canon of scripture, and any developments are through interpretation rather than new revelations. For example, the Roman Catholic Church considers the Bible and teachings of the early Church Fathers as complete, and that public revelation ended with the death of the last apostle.

The Revelation Model allows new beliefs to be introduced through revelations received by living prophets and apostles. Doctrine can evolve over time, and new scriptures can be added to the canon. For instance, the process by which the Mormon Church accepts new beliefs involves revelation to the modern day prophets and apostles, council decision as to whether to present the revelation, communication of the revelation to the Church, member acceptance through sustaining votes, and subsequent implementation.

Predictive technology in policing uses data analysis and algorithms to predict potential criminal activity.
